Jura by GRS 502-023 Microscope Stand For Meiji EMZ

A fixed microscope stand for the setter who works under the scope all day and wants it in the same place every time. The Jura by GRS 502-023 Microscope Stand is purpose-built for micro-stone setting under a microscope. Unlike swing-away arms, this fixed stand keeps your scope locked in the optimal position, minimizing clutter while maximizing stability and repeatability. The latest version supports two mounting methods: conventional Jura bench back-wall mounting or direct benchtop mounting, giving jewelers flexible installation options without sacrificing rigidity.

Features

• Two mounting options: Jura-style bench back wall or direct benchtop mounting, with hardware included for both.
• Fixed-position workflow: Holds the scope in one dedicated position for focused micro-stone setting.
• Solid, compact design: Rock-solid support with a minimal bench footprint.
• Shared tool key: Stand adjustments use the same key as the GRS Microblock.
• 84 mm microscope mount: Adjustable set-screw ring fits Meiji EMZ series, OttoSetters, and many other heads.

Compatibility

• Designed for the Meiji EMZ series microscope heads.
• Also compatible with OttoSetters microscope heads and other scopes with an 84 mm mounting diameter.
• Optimized for micro-stone setting and precision bench work where a fixed viewing position is preferred.

Notes

Conventional Jura bench back-wall mounting: Mounts on a bench back wall located no more than 18" from the front edge of the benchtop. Includes a 4-hole bracket sized for the 1-5/8" vertical tube. Not intended for wall mounting where the stand would need to reach more than 12".

Direct benchtop mounting: Includes mounting ring and bolt for through-bench installation. Requires drilling a 3/8" (9.5 mm) hole and access to the underside of the bench. Supplied bolt accommodates benchtops up to 1-1/2" (38 mm) thick; thicker benchtops require a longer user-supplied bolt. The 16-3/4" (425 mm) vertical tube provides ample working distance between the scope and microblock.

The stand positions the scope off center to the right when viewed from the front of the bench. For a centered scope position, mount the 4-hole bracket to the left of center on the bench back wall.
